  1. Nice. I've never been a fan of sunburst, but this sort of tobaccoburst is very nice.
  2. [quote name='MDWagstaff' timestamp='1499543497' post='3332135'] Wish I had a spare £1k... Where is it based? [/quote] Near Bristol. Pinball's a nice guy and knows his onions - buy with confidence
  3. Anyone tried it? (Obviously it only works if your bass is piezo-only...) If so, what did it sound like, how long did the strings last, and where did you get them? (This sort of thing is what happens when I can't buy any more basses. Bah, humbug.)
  4. And what do you know... http://basschat.co.uk/topic/308199-fs-infinity-6-string-fretless-not-warwick/
  5. [quote name='el borracho' timestamp='1498852579' post='3327619'] I've done a Stingray one with a hand jigsaw, hand drill, files and sandpaper - none of this modern electric stuff! Took ages but was quite satisfying - until I rushed the screw holes and drilled 3 of them in the wrong place - they still don't have screws in but nobody has ever noticed [/quote] You could saw the heads off some screws and glue them in place
  6. [quote name='hamfist' timestamp='1498808818' post='3327127'] Yes, carefully, but by just using a wood block with sandpaper held at an angle. Really close up you can see that it is nowhere near as perfect as a machine produced edge, but its pretty good, and good enough for me. No-one would ever tell the difference from a yard away. [/quote] Having seen (and bought) the results, I can vouch for this.
  7. Apologies for the long delay... It's not the easiest shape to measure, but my Duke is 970mm x 205mm x 70mm, or very close to it. So, sorry but I'm out :/
  8. I think our man kodiakblair may have an opinion here
  9. They don't seem to do a fretless one. I thought they did; discontinued, or is my shonky memory letting me down again?
  10. Marc's not the only one. I traded mine and shouldn't have.
  11. Just as a matter of interest, where do you get strings for these?
  12. What is the neck width at the nut, please?
  13. "No questions or answers have been posted about this item."
  14. I play my Ashbory with the fingerboard vertical and the headstock up by my left ear
  15. [quote name='Norris' timestamp='1496648507' post='3312857'] I keep my own teaspoon at work! As for removing the TRC, well I had my reasons (see avatar). The original is safely tucked away though [/quote] I tried that (the teaspoon, not the TRC). It lasted two days.
  16. Do you need anything below D? if not, then depending on your string tension you might find you can get away with retuning DGCF.
  17. I've no idea why this is still here. Weird.
  18. Hm... I have too many basses. But my aunt lives near Llangollen. What to do?...
